Jodhaa-Akbar rocks mightily

We've just gotten back from Jodhaa Akbar, the three-and-a-half hour epic Cecil B. DeMille only dreamed he could make.

Teaser:

We got battle elephants, giant crowds of extras, some smouldering chemistry, and the sexiest swordfight ever.

Yes it was long, but I def didn't even FEEL the length. It just whizzed by, surprisingly!

Lol, I so think they need to make Jhoom Barabar Jhoom 2: The Hrithik and Aishwarya Chronicles. Just to make up for the lack of dancing. ;)

Man, these two were SO HOT. Not even just together (which was AMAAAZING) but even on their own. If I was I guy or batted for the other team, I would have been so smitten with Ash, it's not even funny. But of course, I am neither, so I was drooling over Hrithik like CRAAAAAAZY! guuuuuuuh that shirtless scene. :D In Lamhon Ki Daaman Mein was so hot. Those two, wow. I was hoping D2's chemistry wasn't just a one-time thing, and it clearly isn't. This was subtle and simple and sweet, but also quite sexy. If it hadn't been them portraying the characters, the movie really wouldn't have worked!

I am so planning on seeing it again next weekend. So good. And Hrithik and Aish must be mandated to make more movies together!

I just posted my review too!

Re: #7... YES. In fact, the moment Hrithik looked at her and said to come with him, the guy behind me said "Bow chicka bow wow..." and I wanted to laugh... and then Hrithik takes Ash to her bedchamber and he was all "See, I told you so!" to his friend. LOL. Damn that was hot stuff...

It was such a well-made movie, the entire family came out of the theater very pleased. :)

I went yesterday to my local bolly shop and they said it was coming out Thursday...I can't wait that long!!

My friends already seen it and said she LOVED it...I can't wait until I get my hands on it.

I thought with all the hype it'd be disappointing but everyone seems to have loved it:)

Hello! I added you to my friends list, miss_dian suggested it after I made a post desperate because I wanted to trade dramas with someone.

If you don't want to add me back that's ok, I understand.

I'm december_clouds by the way, I'm American but I live in England, big fan of Japanese dramas, manga, a few anime, a few bollywood movies, lots of random things like yourself. :)

I'm late as always so not sure if you're even going to get this.. Anyway, yeah, while I was meh about Hrithik-Aish in D2 and then loved them here (even though Hrithik did most of the work jodiwise), I want a 3rd Hrithik-Aish movie with well-choreographed dance scenes. Preferrably Aish doing more traditional dancing, then Hrithik more modern dancing. I guess in here the historical facts that only people of lower descent danced stopped them from having the awesomest dancers dance their hearts out. Damn you, history!

I'm so glad I saw this on the big screen while in England. THE VISUALS. Goodness gracious. Mmm. Yeah it was long and I suffered starvation not having eaten much that day and then spending 4 million hours with this movie and no food at all, but goodness it was great looking.

Hrithik's face is priceless: he is all 'I ordered this feast to impress her but now she is being humiliated, oh no, she won't like me!'Hahahaha! Too cute ( ... )

The swordfight was indeed awesome.

Glad you got to see it in the theater!
